New paper out today! Results of a field experiment in Torquay marina on biodiversity of eco-engineered panels. Different panel complexities had significantly different richness and abundance, whilst spatial variability in panel complexity impacted community composition 🛥️🐚🦪 doi.org/10.1016/j.sc...

A few fieldwork photos to set the scene. Torquay was a harsh mistress, but we did have fun (and a lot of ice creams) @benthicecol.bsky.social @louisefirth.bsky.social
